His comment immediately sparked backlash, as the term \u201cboy\u201d has historically been used as a racist term by White people to refer to adult Black men.<\/p>\n
The incident led to Charlamagne dubbing Biden the \u201cDonkey of the Day\u201d on his show The Breakfast Club.<\/p>\n

Because he\u2019s 137 years old.<\/p>\n \u201cHe fully understands the word \u2018boy’ in a racial context around a White man referring to a Black man as \u2018boy,\u2019 You see, \u2018boy\u2019 is absolutely a White racist word when used in a certain context.\u201d<\/p>\n However, the racialised term wasn\u2019t the worst part of Biden\u2019s blunder, according to Charlamagne.<\/p>\n He said the part he \u201cfound egregious\u201d was 2the fact that Joe Biden got LL Cool J\u2019s name wrong to begin with.\u201d<\/p>\n The Breakfast Club host argued the President should be well aware of LL\u2019s legendary status as he\u2019s been rapping for almost 40 years.<\/p>\n \u201cLL Cool J is a man who has been rapping since President Joe Biden was my age, literally,\u201d Charlamagne fumed.<\/p>\n \u201cJoe Biden was 44, I\u2019m 45, but Joe Biden was 44 when LL Cool J dropped his debut album Radio.<\/p>\n \u201cLL Cool J has been White-famous for at least 35 years. There\u2019s not too many more recognisable celebrities on the planet.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s not like Joe Biden was speaking on somebody relatively new, someone he wasn\u2019t familiar with in any way, shape, or form. It\u2019s LL Cool J.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cY\u2019all keep trying to make this 197-year-old man sound cool simply because he\u2019s talking to Black people,\u201d he concluded. \u201cAnd there\u2019s nothing more uncool than someone trying too hard to be cool.\u201d<\/p>\n
